Now, with Hellenistic warships!

After a sadly disappointing day (although it did include a cheap lavender bookshelf and a flying turtle) yesterday, I was up until quarter past three reading the new Gillian Bradshaw historical fiction, which has a 2nd century BC Rhodian warship that chases down pirates, three kings and a seriously evil queen, intrigue, poisonings, a lovely musician, and all kinds of other fun. I feel like staying up past bedtime has become my equivalent of cheating on a diet, although presumably grauwulf will object if I just keep reading until I get to the end of the book at a time when I'm keeping him up as well.

Wedding invitations are coming together except for the spelling errors on all the ones we printed out yesterday. Sigh. With luck, today's version of productive will be the new and upgraded model, and I will accomplish something where half of it doesn't need to be redone later.

A book that is worthy at 2 am will be equally worthy the next afternoon, after sleep and doing things other than reading. I am just getting worse and worse at actually putting books down when there isn't an immediate need to do so.

I cheer for you against the evil kitchen.
